Spoke with the seller and they admit they cannot prove it’s a Windstone and also cannot find more on it and said they’d change it to an ‘Unknown’. Apparently they got it with some actual Windstones from a person and just assumed. It happens. 🙂

It has been suggested that I ask about a dragon I recently purchased here in Mexico (where I currently live) as it doesn’t have the felt bottom or a mark saying Windstone. The dragon was not being advertised as a Windstone and I didn’t buy it thinking it was a Windstone. I hadn’t even heard of Windstone until a couple days ago when I shared pictures on Facebook and someone asked if it was a Windstone and then I found my way here and the lovely people in the Identification thread suggested here.
And like I mentioned before, nothing on the base.
They do have other dragons they are selling that is this cast but different colors (recently they had a blue one and another silver one), but like I said they are not claiming they are Windstone or even suggesting it. No advertising or even mention of Windstone.
Let me know what you guys think, if anyone else should be told about it. I do so love it though.
The only thing this dragon seems to be missing is the stamp or felt bottom. I don’t know where you’re saying details are sloppy or chunky and I’m not sure about the snout. He’s currently not at hand so I can’t at this moment look closely at him.
I can send a message and ask about it. Not sure if anything legally can be done as I’m in Mexico which is where I bought it from. They are NOT selling them as Windstones.
Someone else mentioned it was a repaint. But I can’t scratch any of the paint off and like all of the males (I imagine as I’ve never heard of Windstone until yesterday), it has Pena 86 on it’s rear.
And like I mentioned before, nothing on the base.
I’ve been informed that the dragon I got recently is a Windstone. It does look like one, but I can’t find it anywhere and there are no marks on the base at all. Can anyone identify it? Could it be one of the Paint it yourself?
Thank you for any information guys!
